Miserably HOT here in Oklahoma so I am spending all my time either on the computer reading or in the house reading. I have stacks of books beside my chair waiting to be read. I just gave up on Girls will be Girls... too much science and repetition for me.. boring! and really didn't learn or relate to any of it.

I bought a hard back copy of WWRWW and I am going to continue reading on it all summer. It's one of those books you have to read slowly and think about.

I have a couple of book club books I bought just to see if they were good, can't even remember the names right now.

Family:

Mark is busy, always busy, whether he has work or not, he is busy.
Seth is enjoying summer. He loves his new church. He loves drumming with the praise team who are all really good musicians (several music majors in the bunch). He has a new crush. He is looking forward to camp... where I am quiet sure there will be lots of snogging going on.
Levi is being Mister Mom, since he is not working full time he has just taken over all the responsibility of home and Zoe. I'm not sure he really enjoys it, kind of hard to tell with Levi. I'm afraid it is allowing him to get lazy. But... he's a grown man, actually none of my business anymore.
Emily has been swimming a little. Its hard to get her motivated to do anything, mostly she sleeps. Makes me so sad, but, what else is she going to do? We are still working on redecorating her room. We have to do it a little at a time as we can afford to buy a new piece. It looks nice so far.

Zoe is growing and changing so quickly. Her new obsession is Winnie the Pooh, which we watch.. a lot. She is beginning to speak in sentences, two or three words at a time. She is smart and sassy and funny. They aren't getting too far too fast with the potty training but I think that is mostly a lack of consistency on their part because she gets the concept she just needs to be encouraged to do it. She has gotten to the point where when she has a wet diaper she just takes it off.
She loves the swimming pool and strawberries.

Travace is growing like a weed, 4 weeks old today and he has grown 2.5 inches and gained almost 3 pounds. They are having some trouble with him being colicky but over all he is a good baby.

Me... I'm depressed a lot these day for no apparent reason, usually content as an old cow but lately have been otherwise... life seems to just keep beating us up or down is probably more accurate.

I'm so sorry you are feeling down. :(
Take care of yourself and let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Hayden is in the taking off his diaper stage too. He all to often doesn't tell us he has to pee until after it's done. He'll get better.
